MAGIC in a bottle - and perhaps one of the finest blends of sustainable and vintage oud in existence. This smooth and velvety (oud) blend made it's debut in our ACHTUNG collection and contains several varieties of new sustainable and vintage oud wood extracts. No artificial oud - all varieties are 100% natural.
A spray or dab of this incredible oud accord on it's own is exquisite and transportative. The blend can also serve as a base to your fragrance layering experiments. When used for meditation or other sacred work, it elevates the seeker to higher planes by opening pathways in the brain which enable us to connect with The Divine.
This blend is featured prominently in our perfumes SEXMAGIC and DEVOTION.

Best Indie Perfume House of 2013: House of Matriarch
MB: Perfumer Christi Meshell truly stepped up her game this year and her House of Matriarch had a spectacular year of creativity. It started with The Maj and ended with Sacre Tabac Part 1; in between was Blackbird, Woo, Entendre, Lucid and the fantastic Achtung Collection. Incredible year for Ms. Meshell where she really created a brand identity for House of Matriarch.
MC: That is exactly what I would have written, almost to the word, but must add, the House Of Matriarch began its transformation last year with Forbidden, which was a special project between The Natural Perfumer's Guild and CaFleureBon for Ophiuchus. Don't forget Coco Blanc and a wonderful website redesign; House of Matriarch is a perfect example of one woman staying true to her spiritual self and she shares her good fortune with numerous charities in the Seattle Community. 2013 is the year that Christi successfully combined creativity with commerce.

HIGH PERFUMERY by HOUSE OF MATRIARCH
HIGH FASHION by ARONHIX
High Perfumery offers a resolution of these stark dualities. Oud: the ultimate sacrament of magical aromatherapy. It invokes a wakeful trance state and the attributes of temperance, art, androgyny, devotion and the union of opposites. Normally this synthesis is possible only during sleep or trance, however oud opens gateways in the mind so that the process can occur consciously.
The octet of oud based perfumes Matriarch has created for the ACHTUNG brand are so exceptional that one of the perfumes (SEXMAGIC) was just announced as a winner of several medals at the International Artisan Fragrance Competition, earning Matriarch's nose Christi Meshell the title "Top Artisan Perfumer."
